  2. Say cheese

    Rojie ask:

    What’s a photo that makes you sad or angry?

    The photo below makes me both sad and angry. I saw it a long time at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. (Which is now the Minneapolis Institute of Art [no more ‘s’] or MIA) (And MIA, because who wants to think of soldiers missing in action when looking at art, was later changed to Mia) (Which we have to pronounce as MEE-uh) (But which I tend to pronounce as MY-uh) (I don’t think I would have voted for the name change if I’d been on the Board but who cares about that?)

    (Where was I?)

    So this picture below, it made me both sad and angry. It still does.

    The family’s story is not a happy one. The only crime in America is being poor. The Damm family is proof of that.

    If you want to read the backstory of the photo then click the link below. That will take you to the first of three slides. On the 3rd slide you can read an update on a couple of the Damm family members.

    The Damm Family in Their Car, Los Angeles, 1987 by Mary Ellen Mark

  4. 9/28/1975 I recall all of us looking at each other when Joe Walsh came out and joined the Eagles. Was this the first show with Joe as an Eagle?

  6. Time The Conquerer

    #jacksonbrowne #timetheconquerer #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky After a six year break, Jackson Browne returns on September 23, 2008 having a whole bunch of things on his mind -- most of which was the effects of the Bush Administration. "The Drums of War" is a spot-on condemnation of the enthusiasm that surrounded the Iraq War. "Far From the Arms of Hunger" brought forward humanitarian issues and the effects of inequality.

By 1974, the Southern California singer-songwriter movement had hit its stride but risked becoming a victim of its own…

  10. Lawyers In Love

    #jacksonbrowne #lawyersinlove #eightiesrock #rockmusic #80smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky # Jackson Browne slides subtly into combining social commentary with a bit slicker 80's pop/rock sound on his 7th album, released August 2, 1983. He recorded it in a converted downtown LA warehouse and leaned into the 80's radio friendly sound. It was his first time without David Lindley. That's Rick Vito and Danny Korchmar on the guitars. There's some classic…

  13. Texas Flood

    #stevierayvaughahan #bluesrock #texasflood #80srock #blues #rockmusic #rock #music #musicsky #musiciansky #jacksonbrowne The debut album from Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble is released on June 13, 1983. It was glorious. At the time, the 80's were dominated by synthesizers and new wave and out of that bleak landscape landed this album -- Stevie, Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon single handidly dragged the electric blues back into the mainstream. Legend…
